The Physical World Around Me
I hear our kittens with their purring cheer
with mother cat of meow-meowing care
oh, how they chirp merrily, vibrantly trilling
then gladly expressing chirrups, reigning over deafening silence.
Amidst coldness of rainy afternoon striving to embrace me
I feel our dog pet with pillow-cushioned fur caressing my feet
so, yielding to the soothing touch of each other
we both bask in the warmth of closeness.
Seeing dear pets in their haven of rest
playfully huddling inside their colorful autumnal pet pens
I seem to behold Genesis-exposed Eden
with animals in wondrous paradise.
Against conflicting antiseptic disinfectant outside
and the lemon-scent spray pervading in our living room
I delight in the refreshing newly-bathed Doggie Allilee
blending with the talc-smell of our Meowna Cattie.
While our pets feast with crunchy dog meal
and yummy cat's cheesy bites
I savor the ginger-filled soup of mixed green-leafy vegetables
Grateful to God for our palatable viand of nutritious roasted chicken.
